=Mini-Mission 1: Advocating and Implementing Project Based Learning=
 * Reflect on what you have learned about the structure, components, and rationale for project based learning and complete this mission:**

1. Provide a rational for why PBL will be more successful methodology than conventional means of lecture and large class discussion. > student directed rather than the teacher directed; the student voice guides the direction and path of the learning 2. Provide possible PBL projects for each of the subjects taught: math, social studies, science and Antiquan language arts. 3. Provide either a short jingle to help the Antiquans remember project based learning or an illustration that would help the Antiquans remember project based learning.
 * more engagement from students, authentic learning, students are personally invested in the process, real, the performance prepares them for the real audience
 * Students will design a car- being aware of the areodymanics of their vehicle (science). They will need to describe a marketing campaign keeping in mind the culture where they are selling it and the language and format they will use to reach their audience (social studies and language arts). Students should think about the environmental aspects of this vehicle on the land around them (science and social studies). Groups will also provide and follow a budget for this vehicle so that it can be purchased and is fully desired by the majority of the people in their target audience.

=Mini-Mission 2: Wisdom of the Crowd: Next Steps= After analyzing and synthesizing the ideas on your chart, work together as a team to wordsmith 5-10 measurable next steps around implementation of your category Barrier - The Administrative Priority/Vision
 * 1) Create an established mission and vision statement that include administrators' expectations with teachers' input towards the use of technology in the classroom that will occur in the future endeavors of the staff and students.
 * 2) Create a common rubric for administrators and teachers so that they both understand what an effective use of technology integration should look like in the classroom. Once there is a common understanding of effective use; teachers need to invite administrators into the classroom to see what this truly looks like when being used properly.
 * 3) Staff members should make it a priority to constantly share success stories with all stakeholders to truly publicize effective use of technology.
 * 4) Teachers working with their administrators should develop an action plan for their departments and/or an Individual Technology Integration Plan describing how they will affectively integrate technology literacies into their classrooms.
 * 5) Administrators need to model the use of effective technology when conducting faculty meetings, professional development sessions, and everyday procedures. This provides buy-in for the staff that there is truly value in using technology more than simply "play".
 * 6) Administrators should encourage and value the input from the Technology Committee to the school board, as to the actions and valuable use of technology.
